>=

Type:	-	function (subr)
Source:	-	xlmath.c

Syntax

(>= expr1 expr2 ... )

exprN - a numeric expression
returns -  T  if the results of comparing the expressions are all true, NIL otherwise

Description

The '>=' [greater-than-or-equal] function takes an arbitrary number of numeric arguments. It checks to see if all the numbers are monotonically non-increasing.  T  is returned if 'expr1' is the arguments are numerically, monotonically non-increasing, NIL is returned otherwise. For two arguments, this has the effect of testing if 'expr1' is greater than or equal to 'expr2'.

Examples

(>= 1 2)                    ; returns NIL
(>= 1 1)                    ; returns T
(>= -1.5 -1.4)              ; returns NIL
(>= 3 2 1)                  ; returns T
(>= 3 2 2)                  ; returns T
(>= 3 2 3)                  ; returns NIL
(>= "aa" "abc")             ; error: bad argument type
(setq a 12) (setq b 13.99)  ; set up A and B with values
(>= a b)                    ; returns NIL
(>= b a)                    ; returns T
